Tuition and Fees - Late Pickup Charges

When children are picked up outside of operating hours, a fee of $15 per family for each quarter hour will be charged to your

account. Please inform the school if you will be late; late pickups should be considered an unusual occurrence. Please allow

enough time to arrive at the school to pick up your child and leave the school before closing time. For families receiving state

or federal funding, provider can charge a late fee after all authorized hours have been exhausted if such mandates are stated

in their agency contract.

If you are late, our staff and administrators are not permitted to remove your child from the school or transport him or her

to another location. Children left in our care after hours will be supervised as long as possible. We will contact all emergency

contacts listed in your child’s file. Child Protective Services (CPS) will be called if we are unable to reach you or an emergency

contact after two hours.

If the parent(s) or person(s) authorized by the parent(s) appears to be physically and/or emotionally impaired to the extent

that, in the judgment of the director and/or staff member, the child would be placed at risk of harm if released to such an

individual, the center shall ensure that:

1. The child may not be released to such an impaired individual;

2. Staff members attempt to contact the child’s other parent or an alternative person(s) authorized by the parent(s); and

3. If the center is unable to make alternative arrangements, a staff member shall call Child Protective Services (CPS)

 to seek assistance in caring for the child.
